Question: "What was the relationship between David and Jonathan?" Answer: We know from 1 Samuel 18:1 that Jonathan loved David. Second Samuel 1:26 records David’s lament after Jonathan’s death, in which he said that his love for Jonathan was more wonderful than the love of a woman. Some use these two passages to suggest a homosexual relationship between David and Jonathan. This interpretation, however, should be rejected for at least three reasons. First, the Hebrew word for “love” used here is not the typical word used for sexual activity. This word for “love” has clear political and diplomatic connotations (see 1 Samuel 16:21 and 1 Kings 5:1 ). Second, David’s comparison of his relationship with Jonathan with that of women is probably a reference to his experience with King Saul’s daughter. He was promised one of Saul’s daughters for killing Goliath. But Saul continued to add conditions upon this marriage with the underlying desire to have David killed in battle (1 Samuel 18:17 , 25 ). The love David had received from Jonathan was greater than anything he could have received from Saul’s daughter. Third, the Bible clearly and consistently denounces homosexuality ( Genesis 1:26-27 ; Leviticus 18:22 ; 20:13 ; Romans 1:18-25 ). Extolling a homosexual love between David and Jonathan would be contradicting the prohibitions of it found throughout the Bible. The friendship between David and Jonathan was a covenantal relationship. In 1 Samuel 18:1-5 , we read of David and Jonathan forming an agreement. In this agreement, Jonathan was to be second in command in David’s future reign, and David was to protect Jonathan’s family ( 1 Samuel 20:16-17 , 42 ; 23:16-18 ). Obviously, these two men were also very good friends. In their relationship we can see at least three qualities of true friendship. First, they sacrificed for one another. In 1 Samuel 18:4 , we read that Jonathan gave David his clothes and military garb. The significance of this gift was that Jonathan recognized that David would one day be king of Israel. Rather than being envious or jealous, Jonathan submitted to God’s will and sacrificed his own right to the throne. Second, in 1 Samuel 19:1-3 , we read of Jonathan’s loyalty toward and defense of David. King Saul told his followers to kill David. Jonathan rebuked his father and recalled David’s faithfulness to him in killing Goliath. Finally, Jonathan and David were also free to express their emotions with one another. In 1 Samuel 20 , we read of a plan concocted by Jonathan to reveal his father’s plans toward David. Jonathan was going to practice his archery. If he told his servant that the arrows he shot were to the side of the target, David was safe. If Jonathan told his servant that the arrows were beyond the target, David was to leave and not return. Jonathan told the servant that the arrows were beyond the target, meaning that David should flee. After releasing his servant, Jonathan found David and the two men cried together. Rather than being evidence for a homosexual relationship in the Bible, the account of David and Jonathan is an example of true biblical friendship. True friendship, according to the Bible, involves loyalty, sacrifice, compromise, and yes, emotional attachment. That is what we should learn from David and Jonathan. The idea that the only person in the Bible described as “a man after God’s own heart” (Acts 13:22 ), was a practicing homosexual (or bisexual) is ridiculous and has no true biblical basis. source: http://www.gotquestions.org/David-and-Jonathan.html |

THIRTEEN (13) memorable quotes from Gov Ayodele Fayose's Inaugural speech during his inauguration today: 1. "Everyone should observe a minute silence for All Progressives Congress. May their soul rest in perfect peace. They’ve departed our state forever". 2. "I am the Governor that eats Boli (roasted plantain) with you and drinks Abgo Jedi (local herbal drink) with you". 3. "You have successfully suported me in sending them(APC) back to their masters in Lagos. Not in our history again will they come back to our state". 4. "God said to me that I should say with my heart; that i should forgive Ekiti people for removing me in the first place. I declare peace, prosperity employment, progress and stomach infrastructure for the people of Ekiti". 5. "It is difficult for a man to get a second chance. I will banish hunger in your midst. I will work hard to put food on your table". 6. "I am going to appoint a special adviser for stomach infrastructure. Tarring your road is wonderful, but food in the stomach is important. Already, I am grooming your chickens for Christmas and I am getting your rice ready". 7. "Fayemi had the money and power, but he disconnected himself from the people. We have over 157 state accounts, and none of them has N1million in it". 8. "My government was seized in the jugular by the power mongering demagod. The ship of state drifted with neither compass nor navigator. You know them, they are always the first to paint a picture that is different from the truth in the media." 9. "The same margin I gave to Adebayo was the same I gave to Fayemi. The only difference is that Fayemi was defeated in the 16 local government areas. It was 16-0." 10. "To the Ekiti civil servants, this is new govt. You must support the new govt. Anyone that do politics will be sacked". 11. "The Head of Service, all Permanent Secretaries that are appointed after June 21, should give way". 12. "I am not going to recognise the newly created LCDAs. I am only going to share the state resources among the 16 LGAs recognised by the constitution. God catch them, they forgot to amend the law on boundary". 13. "That government house you are looking at, when we finish here, I am going to lead you there. You are going to sleep theretonight. Open all the rooms and sleep there". |
10 facts about militant group Boko Haram 1. It was founded by Mohammed Yusuf in 2002 Born in 1970, Yusuf was a Muslim sect leader and founded Boko Haram as its spiritual leader. He was killed in the 2009 Boko Haram Uprising while in police custody – a conflict between the militant group and Nigerian security forces that led to more than 1000 deaths. He had four wives and 12 children. There is some discrepancy around how he died, the Nigerian government claiming it was during a fight but a video interview of Yusuf in prison disputes this. 2. The group is now run by Abubakar Shekau Shekau served as deputy leader to Yusuf and authorities believed he had been killed in the 2009 clash, but he appeared in a video in 2010 claiming leadership. He posts videos online stating that he ‘cannot be stopped’ and in his recent video claiming responsibility for the abduction of the 300 girls. He described the girls as “slaves” and said “By Allah, I will sell them in the marketplace.” 3. It’s full name is The Congregation of the People of Tradition for Proselytism and Jihad It is better known by its Hausa name, Boko haram, loosely meaning “Western education is sinful.” 4. It is designated as a terrorist group Gen Ham, commander of the US Africa Command (Africom) believes that there are links between Boko Haram and al-Qaeda. He believes that that they are sharing explosives and funds. On October 13, 2013, the US government designated the group as a terrorist organisation. 5. It was a peaceful group until 2009 Yusuf founded the group with the intention of establishing a sharia government in Borneo State. Sharia essentially means the religious law (including crime, politics and economics) of a prophetic religion – in English it usually identified with Islam. Yusuf set up a religious complex that included a school where many poor families sent their children. Yusuf began recruiting future jihadists, using the high unemployment, poverty and political corruption of Nigeria to encourage people to join. 6. The Nigerian government launched investigations in 2009 which brought the beginnings of violence With reports that the group was arming itself, the Nigerian government began taking action. Several arrests resulted in deadly clashes that resulted in the deaths of more than 1000 people. 7. The violence is escalating There were an estimated 3600 people killed by the group between 2010 and 2013, while more than 1500 have died in the insurgency this year. 8. Nigerian police, military and government have contributed to its success of Boko Haram Despite Nigeria’s wealth due to its oil, around 75 per cent of its population is considered poor. The police and military are known to execute prisoners without trial and there has been factional fighting between the northern Islamic Fulani and southern Christian Berom tribes, that included a conflict between 2001 and 2004 that left more than 50,000 people dead. 9. The group doesn’t represent Islam Boko Haram has come under much criticism by Muslim leaders, including Dr. Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu, the Niger State governor and The Sulton of Sokoto Sa’adu Abubakar, the spiritual leader of Nigerian Muslims, as not representing Islam, and even anti-Islam. “Islam is known to be a religion of peace and does not accept violence and crime in any form and Boko Haram doesn’t represent Islam,” says Dr. Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu. 10. Boko Haram kills both Muslims and Christians alike There are varied reports of how many Nigerians are Christian or Muslim – but the margin between them is slim – with around half of the population Christian and half Muslim. Boko Haram has instigated attacks on both Muslims and Christians alike, indicating that the group is not necessarily influenced by religion, but also by corruption and poverty. The group has blown up schools, religious buildings, sports venues and even family dinners. source: http://www..com/10-facts-about-militant-group-boko-haram/ |

Suleiman Abu Ghaith, a son-in-law of Osama bin Laden, was sentenced to life in prison on Tuesday in New York following his conviction on terrorism charges. A Manhattan federal jury in March found the Kuwaiti-born 48-year-old guilty of conspiring to kill Americans, conspiring to provide material support for terrorists and providing such support. US District Judge Lewis Kaplan, addressing Abu Ghaith, said it was his “assessment that you are committed to doing everything you can to carry out al Qaeda’s agenda to kill Americans.” Abu Ghaith, who was arrested in Turkey, is one of the highest-ranking al Qaeda figures to be brought to the United States to face a civilian trial. Evidence against him included videos and audio recordings, prosecutors said. Abu Ghaith appeared in videos representing al Qaeda after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks. http://www.punchng.com/news/bin-laden-son-in-law-sentenced-to-life-in-us-2/ |
